f The Kentucky Press Association recognizes i
the fundamental importance of the implied i
trust imposed on newspapers and dissemination . 3
of public information. It stands for truth, fair- '
ness, accuracy, and decency in the presentation 5
of news, as set forth in the Canons of Joumal- 5
ism. It advocates strict ethical standards in its 3?
2 advertising column. It opposes the publication
of propaganda under the guise of news. It af- . "
firms the obligation of a newspaper to frank, . l
honest and fearless editorial expressions. It re— «
spects equality of opinion and the right of every
individual to participation in the Constitutional 5
guarantee of Freedom of the Press. It believes
in the newspaper as a vital medium for civic,
economic. social and cultural community de- .
